Overview
Sliding off the auxiliary bed turns this Juki into a free arm machine for collars and cuffs. Computerized controls offer a large stitch library with lettering, the needle threads itself, and a drop feed opens up free motion quilting.
A big pattern list plus a hard carrying case suits sewists who bring a machine to classes and retreats. The listing gives no throat space, speed or warranty, and the case adds bulk to a fairly heavy machine.
Who it's for
Garment sewists and quilters who travel to workshops and want a protected, full-featured machine. Quilters handling king-size projects at home will want a larger harp space.
Pros and cons
- Large stitch pattern library
- Three lettering fonts
- Hard-shell travel case
- Button-sized automatic buttonholes
- Heavy for a travel machine
- Throat space and warranty not listed
- Plastic housing per specs
Performance notes
Buttonholes size themselves from the button placed in the foot, so they match without measuring. Presser foot pressure can be set for the fabric, which helps light fabrics feed without puckering.
